Re: [GIT PULL 7/7] omap mailbox move to drivers for v3.11 merge window

Ok, thanks for the explanation. Please also see the other email thread about the linux-next conflict.

The changes mainly contain: - a minor bug fix and cleanup of mach-specific mailbox code - remove any header dependencies from plat-omap for multi-platform support - represent mailbox device data through platform data/hwmod attrs - move the omap mailbox code out of plat-omap/mach-omapX to drivers/mailbox folder I've pulled this into next/drivers as well, rather than a separate branch that we had for 3.10 (and dropped). I am a bit puzzled about this series though. Is it right that for 3.10 we had plans for a generic subsystem, and now it's just the omap drivers?
